About the Cyber Essentials Canada Certification
Cyber Essentials Canada is the only government-sponsored cybersecurity certification that can be obtained in Canada, along with its successor the "Cybersecure" certification. This framework is based on the Cyber Essentials standard in the UK, an annual certification intended for small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs).
Cyber threats have become a serious concern for businesses of all sizes in today's digital world. Because of this, investors, insurers, and clients are now requiring evidence that their suppliers or customers have put the necessary measures in place to protect their assets, data, and by extension, their reputation. Cyber Essentials was designed around 5 key security controls that help mitigate most cyber risks that organizations are faced with today. These controls are: Patch management, access control, firewalls and internet gateways, malware protection as well as secure configurations. This certification aims to answer the concerns mentioned above by providing a seal of approval regarding the implementation of these 5 security controls.
